Monangai (thigh) was a full practice participant Friday.

The rookie came out of a Week 5 bye listed with a new injury, but he'll apparently be fine for Monday's game at Washington, likely filling his usual role as the No. 2 running back. Monangai took 20 touches for 85 yards over the first four weeks of the season, failing to make a move despite D'Andre Swift's mediocre results as the lead back.

Shipley saw the field for just three offensive snaps in Thursday's loss to the Giants.

Shipley hasn't been a significant part of the offense at any point this season for the Eagles, but Thursday represented his season-low snap count. He did not touch the ball on offense but did return one kick for 22 yards.

Dillon carried the ball once for two yards and caught a pair of passes for 18 yards in Thursday's loss to the Giants.

Dillon received his first two targets of the year, but overall his workload remained minimal. He's yet to receive more than three touches or see the field for more than 10 offensive snaps in a game this season.

Irving (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Irving missed practice for a second straight week, never making a bid to play. Rachaad White figures to be tasked with workhorse usage again, while Sean Tucker will come off the bench and fourth-stringer Josh Williams (concussion) will join Irving on the inactive list. Reports last week suggested Irving was expected to miss two games, but that doesn't necessarily mean he'll be back for a Week 7 contest at Detroit on Monday Night Football (Oct. 20).

Kamara (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against New England, Ross Jackson of WWL Louisiana reports.

Early reports suggested Kamara hurt his ankle during Wednesday's practice, but he clarified Thursday that the injury initially occurred during a win over the Giants on Sunday. That may also explain why Kendre Miller took on so much of the rushing workload, especially late in the game. This week, Kamara was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, with Mike Triplett of NewOrleans.Football suggesting that the veteran RB is on track to play. There is some risk that Kamara's workload looks more like Week 5 than Weeks 1-4, but he'll presumably still start if he's declared active ahead of the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff.

Williams (concussion) won't play Sunday against the 49ers, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

Williams was evaluated for a concussion and cleared to return during Tampa Bay's Week 5 win over the Seahawks, but he experienced concussion symptoms after Thursday's practice and was subsequently placed in concussion protocol. Despite the absence of Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) against Seattle, Williams' contributions were limited to kickoff returns on special teams. Williams' next chance to play will come Oct. 20 against the Lions.

Goodson (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Amanda Foster of the Colts' official site reports.

Goodson will miss a second consecutive game due to the groin injury he sustained in Week 4 against the Rams. DJ Giddens will continue to work as the primary backup to workhorse running back Jonathan Taylor.

Dowdle will start Sunday's game against the Cowboys, as David Newton of ESPN.com reports that Chuba Hubbard (calf) has been ruled out.

Dowdle was outstanding in Hubbard's absence against the Dolphins in Week 5, as the former rushed for a career-high 206 yards in a 27-24 Panthers win. Dowdle should continue to hold a near-monopoly on Carolina's backfield touches against his former team, the Cowboys, with Trevor Etienne and DeeJay Dallas on hand to provide depth.

Hubbard (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Dallas.

Hubbard missed every practice for a second straight week, leaving Rico Dowdle as the leader of Carolina's backfield after his 206-yard rushing performance in last Sunday's win over the Dolphins. Dowdle gets another favorable matchup this coming Sunday, facing his former team in a game that's tied for the second-highest over/under (49.5) of Week 6.

Nwangwu (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Nwangwu upgraded to full practice participation Friday to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game in London. He's set to reclaim primary kickoff return duties on special teams in what will be Nwangwu's first action since Week 1.
